The Lonely Act

The musician songster I so admire
will perform for us what they love for hire
while the music I make all for free
I am the only one who know of me
  
The dancer accomplish the stage above
a living they make doing what they love
although dancing alone my room at night
I am the only one who know I might
  
The respect and wonder I have for all
of whom talent on show does so enthrall
when alone I perform my act for none
the applause I receive from only one
